The missoltini with polenta are a typical recipe of the countries overlooking Lake Como in Lombardy. In fact, the missoltini are a typical product of Lake Como obtained by drying agoni covered with salt placed in the sun. This fish is very popular in the local tradition because of the large amount of fish caught in the spring season. This abundance then required a way to be preserved and consumed throughout the rest of the year. This recipe is the most typical one which wants them accompanied with polenta and lightly flavoured with oil and parsley.
